Chapter 20 Departure
When Harley went to school the next day, she got out of the car and saw Queenie waiting at the school gate, and found that her expression changed from joy to sentimentality at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The corners of the mouths on both sides were pulled down, full of grievances.
Harry walked up to Queenie, and Queenie even ignored Damian who had just passed by, and she didn't even hide.
"Tomorrow?" Queenie asked.
Harry nodded, the convenience of being with Queenie is that it can completely save the time of communication...
The premise is that you don't mind her prying into your heart all the time.
So far, Harley has no objections, and she feels that she has no secrets that she can't share with her good friends-Queenie said that they will go to "Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry" together in the future, which she says is the best magic school *, Queenie's grandma graduated there.
Queenie already knew what happened to Harley - only the version she saw in her head, nothing more.She really wanted to help Harry investigate the information about that "Voldemort", but the life at home was completely "No-Maj".
She asked her grandma, but she had lived in America all her life and didn't know much about what was happening in England.
Can that black wizard still fly to America?Queenie was very suspicious.
She assured Harry that if a dark wizard approached, she would be the first to sense it, so don't worry.
So she felt that there was no need for Harry to go to Paradise Island to learn how to fight, and the "irony magic" learned in advance seemed too unconventional.Although her father is a "squib", she has seen grandma use magic, how can a wizard do without a wand.
Queenie couldn't be more upset that she had a friend - a perfect friend, fellow wizard, kind-hearted friend who didn't hate her Legilimency abilities - and was going to be separated for months up.
Harry kicked pebbles beside her, keeping her silent.
Damian was watching them from Junior High again, and Queenie rolled her eyes, how afraid he was of telling Harry his secret.
Obviously one is Robin and the other is Batman. If the dark wizard finds them, wouldn’t it be fine for them to rush up directly? It’s not that the Justice League has never fought magical enemies—yes, that’s right, Queenie has already Knowing the small sideline of Wayne's family - just when Bruce Wayne attended the groundbreaking ceremony of the school's chemistry laboratory and inadvertently stepped into the radiation range of her perception ability.
She has always thought that Batman is one of the few good people in Gotham, so she admires Bruce Wayne, the kind of five-body prostration, and is even willing to give him voluntary labor, helping Batman interrogate Arkham prisoners and so on.Of course she wouldn't reveal his secret to anyone.And from Harry's memory, she also saw that the whole family was hiding from her for the time being, so naturally she would not interfere in Harry's family affairs.
It's just this Robin who stopped his night activities in Gotham last year, the darkness in his memory made Queenie can't help avoiding him...
Harry quite liked this brother, Queenie pouted, she could understand how this happened from reading Harry's thoughts - kind feedback and appreciation of ability - but she just didn't agree.
Harry you just don't know how bad he used to be!And I don't guarantee that he will become so bad again in the future!
After pulling Harry away from Damian's sight, Queenie began to pace slowly towards the classroom again. She wanted to cherish the few moments she had.
"I've only seen Paradise Island in the news. I feel that the female fighters in it are so strong. You won't come back after training like that?" Queenie trembled, the muscular Harley?this is too scary……
"I'd rather," Harry snorted, "then Damian and I won't lose so badly in training. I can pinch him down!"
See, this is Damian's bad influence!The soft and cute Harley who was fine when I saw it for the first time is now full of dings and clangs.
Who knows what kind of ghost he will become after returning from Paradise Island!
"Actually, I'm really looking forward to it," Harry turned around, shrugging the schoolbag on his shoulders, "Imagine, this is Paradise Island! And those studies and trainings! Meet the Amazons! This is a rare adventure!"
"You must be a standard Thunderbird." Queenie shook her head, she didn't feel like Harry.
"What am I?" Harry wondered, another new word from Queenie.
Only in terms of traditional magic, Queenie felt that Harley and herself really belonged to the same world, and Harley's adoring and curious eyes made her very useful.
"Thunderbird Academy is one of the four colleges in Ilvermorny. The other three are Water Snake Academy, Cat Leopard Academy, and Goblin Academy. It is said that Water Snake Academy favors those who are smart and love to read, Cat Leopard Academy respects warriors, and Goblin Academy has more They are kind-hearted healers, while Thunderbird Academy is mostly adventurous.*”
"When you come back, I will ask grandma to send me a book about the history of magic in America." Queenie said to Harley while going up the stairs. This will definitely attract Harley to come back soon!
***********
After bidding farewell to Queenie and packing up the things left in the school, Harley returned to the mansion by car accompanied by Grandpa Afu who came to ask for leave.
Several brothers and sister Barbara also came back to see her off.
"Paradise Island? Not bad." Jason congratulated Harley at the dinner table, "When you come back, I'm counting on you to beat Damian up.
He cut a large piece of pastrami for Harry, and from the amount of meat, he could see how much he expected Harry to "beat up" Damian, "Eat more when you get there, and try to look like As strong as Artemis."
"Then she can beat you like Artemis." Damian teased.
Seeing that the two brothers were about to start talking again, Harry quickly interjected, "Artemis, is he also an Amazon?"
"Yes," Damian let Jason go (of course Jason thought he was letting Damian go), "he's taller and stronger than Todd, and Todd looks like a girl next to her."
"Then you look like a two-year-old next to her." Jason pushed back.
"They all, have superpowers?" Harley asked the question before the next second, besides diverting the attention of the two brothers, she also really wanted to know - she remembered that Wonder Woman seemed to be able to fly.
"There are some, such as Diana, but most of them just have extraordinary force, and the well-trained and perfect coordination of the Amazons in Paradise Island as an entire army." Tim answered for Halle.
"I remember that Artemis just told me that before Kara, they also provided shelter to a girl with the ability to predict the future-but it was not a complete prediction ability, just some fragments, and sometimes even Under her own control," Jason told Halle, "I think her name was Lila."
All these anecdotes made Halle more and more looking forward to the trip to Paradise Island.
After the meal, Sister Barbara helped Harley pack her luggage in her room, and also helped her put on some contact lenses—after all, it is inconvenient to train with a frame.
In the middle of the night, Harry was sitting on the bed, which was earlier than her normal sleep time, but she was not sleepy at all—the excitement for tomorrow had gradually faded, and now a kind of Uneasy: What if, what if she can't practice well?Did she let everyone down?
Harry tossed and turned, losing sleep.
And on Paradise Island, in an ordinary bedroom, Laila woke up on a white four-poster bed, and her vision drove away all sleepiness.
A small fireball burned in front of her eyes, and a circular, lens-like space appeared in the center of the fireball. At this time, she exclusively belonged to her planet of astrology—there, the prophecy picture that had been haunting for several days, without any warning. Next, tonight, from "Superman covered her corpse in the water with a red cape" abruptly changed to "she lay unconscious on the ground".
Is it just that the way of dying has changed?Laila smiled helplessly...
***********
Harley was sent to Paradise Island the next day by a black-painted high-class plane, which was driven by Uncle Bruce.
Since the plane only had the driver's seat and a small co-pilot seat, Grandpa Afu didn't see her off. Hali thought it was nothing, since she would go back after a few months anyway.
All the way, Harry was only focused on admiring the sparkling sea under the sun, and didn't pay attention to the time. When she and Uncle Bruce landed, the whole island was already warmed by the mid-day sun.
Harley thinks that the pictures on TV do not show one-tenth of the beauty of Paradise Island at all—the green vegetation is dotted with simple Greek-style buildings, and the clear blue sky above forms an interesting backdrop.Harley felt that the whole person became solemn under the influence of this environment.
The teacher said that looking at green plants can relieve myopia?Then can she regain her eyesight in Paradise Island? ——Just by looking at these green plants every day?Of course, this was just her wild imagination.
Wonder Woman was waiting for them near the drop point.This time she was in uniform—a harmonious movement of armor and strength.
On this island, men's actions are strictly restricted--Bruce is of course no exception.
So he could only say goodbye to Harley at the landing point, and told her that if she needed anything, she could tell Zatanna who came to teach her magic.
God knows that he had thought of sending Harley to a private elementary school at the farthest point, but now he was on Paradise Island—only then did he deeply understand Clark's resistance to sending Kara here.
——It’s really too far and too strange.
After waving to Uncle Bruce, Harry exclaimed and was carried by Wonder Woman and flew up - "It's faster this way", said Woman.
Harley had never flown so high before, and the last time she was at Little Joe's place was "levitation" at most - the shock and novelty had made her completely forget the sadness of saying goodbye to Uncle Bruce.
"The fighting arena is holding a public competition, I'll take you to see it." The heroine flew wildly, and Harry watched with concern.
Landing on the sidelines of a similar fighting arena only seen in history books, Harley watched in horror as a girl with long blonde hair flew up and punched the ground—at a big female warrior she had already knocked down.
This is killing people!Harry wants to cover his eyes!
